BURLINGTON, Ont. – Ontario University Athletics (OUA) is pleased to announce the 2017 OUA Field Hockey major award winners and All-Stars.

Coach of the Year – Rachelle Seguin, Queen's
As a member of the fifth school to have a major award winner, meanwhile, Rachelle Seguin takes home Coach of the Year honours for her work with the Queen's Gaels. Queen's played their way to a fourth place regular season finish this year (4-6-2), an improvement on their results from the year prior (3-7-2), which has also seen growth against the province's top-seeded teams.

Beyond the numbers, however, Seguin also constantly seeks opportunities to develop as a coach and find resources to bring in to support and improve the program, whether that is financial resources, human resources, etc. She is a passionate advocate for the development of field hockey at Queen's and in the wider Kingston community.

In her fifth year with the program – during the team's 50^th anniversary season – Seguin was able to find success with her talented roster, including the contributions from OUA All-Stars Ciara Morrison (Toronto, Ont.) and Jacinta Mallon (Sydney, AU).
